Battle
Ground Cemetery was walked and logged
by Mary E. Wilson in
August
and September of 1999, and
she has graciously shared her work to help
Tippecanoe
County researchers find
their ancestors. We are very thankful
for all the time and hard work she put into this project!
I'm sure this will be a valuable resource for Tippecanoe County
researcher for many years to
come. Mary not only read and transcribed the tombstones,
but she also
searched the cemetery sexton records, county
death records and obituaries from the Lafayette Journal
and Courier and found several burials that are
unmarked.
She is continuing
this work and updates will be made when
more burials and death dates are found in those records.

You will note in the records the
following initials used to indicate sources:
BG D/R = Battle Ground Death Record
OB = Obituary from the Lafayette Journal and Courier
SR = Sexton Records

You will also find notes in parenthesis
that were not part of Mary's original work. Thesenotes were added by me as I prepared the file
to go online. The information is for some of myown families and
comes from my own personal research. Source
information has been givenfor
these
additions. Adina
